Third World War

Do not panic about Third World War
Saying it is somewhere brewing anger
What you see as symptoms are fake
Because the real thing has been foiled

Third World war is being fought daily
In football stadiums of the playful world
These  battle-fields of  war without war
Has magic immunity against bloody war

Youth are suffering soccer megalomania
Super powers are sick with nuclear fever
Veterans of the super wars are idle ghosts
God of wars have migrated to other planets

Now that Third World War has been foiled
Better sit down and watch soccer battles
